This document discusses authentic assessment and authentic intellectual work. It advocates for using new technologies to support constructivist learning principles of having students collect information, relate it to their own knowledge, create new understanding through collaboration and presentation, and donate their work by publishing it for others. Several examples are provided of lessons where students create common craft videos, participate in group blogging, make podcasts, and choose their own adventure videos to demonstrate their learning. The document emphasizes that students should have an expectation that their work may be published online for broader audiences.
